MKS SBASE

Overview

MKS-SBASE is a latest version of 3D Printer main board by Makserbase(MKS).

It is based on ARM platform and using 32bit 100M Cortex-MS

MCU-LPC1768.

Respect to MKS SBASE V1.0 : MKS SBASEV1.2 1.Fix temperature problem. 2.Add thermocouple Pins( can't be used with 12864lcd together). 3.Create P1.22 P1.23 P2.12 P2.11 P4.28 for developing. 4.Extend endstop power 3.3V / 5V. 5. Pre-install two big heatsinks.

Features

1. Using 32bit 100M Cortex-M3 MCU-LPC 1768, and improve its performance

highly.

2.Support highly modular open source firmware Smoothieware, easy for

secondary development.

3. Support network function, then proceed remote control via IE Explorer.

4. Using DRV8825 stepper driver which supports 32-microstep and with

excellent cooling.

5. Currents of the stepper motor can be set directly, which can avoid the

damage .

6. Using high quality FR-4 4 layers PCB and special design for cooling.

7. Using professional power chip, support 12V-24V DC input






8. Good to work with 12864LCD and MKS TFT touch screen.

How to use

1、 Copy “firmware.bin” and “config” from config file to SD card. Need to

change config name .For example:

Change into






2、Adjust config.txt according to the configuration .

3、Refer to MKS-SBASE PIN , make correction connection. Such as stepper

motor ,endstops.

4、Plug the SD card to the board, after power on, it will automatically update .

5、If connect computer with USB, need to install the driver(Refer to below

specification ).

Install the driver

First, you should upload the smoothieware-windows-signeddriver.zip,

and extract.

Then, plug the USB to computer . Next, enter device manger .

Update the Driver Software.






Then will turn up COM after install successfully.

Download new firmware and update

Please upload firmware from our github: https://github.com/makerbase-mks/ .

Copy configuration (including firmware.bin and config.txt) to SD card, insert to the

board and power on, it will automatic update .

After successful updated, the file name will turn into firmware.cur

Others

1.Support Gcode. Please refer to G-Codes.htm .

2.Main parameter setting

It is very easy to set the parameter . First, open config.txt on SD card, then

modify the parameters and save. Re-power on.

Details on parameter, please refer to Configuration_Options.

(1)、Here below are the parameters should be set according to your machines.
